But what happens when your little toddler is suffering from a cold and cough? Well, the first thing is that you lose your sleep and mind over it. All you want is for your baby to heal and be comfortable. Home remedies are best if tried religiously and have shown significant improvements in a child&#39;s health. Here is a list of a few of the best home remedies for your toddler:</span></span></span> </span></span></span></span></p>

All you have to do is squeeze 2-3 drops of saline drops into each of your baby&#39;s nostrils by holding their head back and still for about 10 seconds. Once the mucus is loosened, the bulb syringe can help you get the mucus out of your baby&#39;s nose. If your baby does not do well with a bulb syringe, simply put the nasal saline drops and wait for the mucus to dilate. Once it does, clean it with a soft napkin.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

Treatment for Hives in toddlers 

<p>Hair loss is a normal phenomenon for both men and women. In fact, at any given point in time, 10% of our hair, that is in the resting stage, tends to fall out. During pregnancy, however, increased levels of estrogen delay the natural hair growth cycle ensuring that there is more hair in the resting stage and also that they do not fall out when they are supposed to.</p>

<p>This makes our hair look thick and lustrous. But the hair does fall out eventually, post-delivery. This is what happens in most cases. Nonetheless, there are some women who experience hair fall during pregnancy. If you are among those women, then you do not have to bother anymore. Continue reading through to learn more about what you can do to tackle the problem of hair fall!</p>

<h2><strong>Why Do Women Experience Hair Fall During Pregnancy? </strong></h2>

<p>Hair fall during pregnancy can be attributed to various reasons. A few of the conditions may be reversible; however, you may need medical attention to treat other conditions effectively. Some of the most common ones include:</p>

<p><strong>1. Hormonal changes </strong></p>

<p>During pregnancy, your hormones are continuously fluctuating, thus resulting in changes in both your skin as well as your hair. Although you can try numerous home remedies to calm down certain skin or hair issues, it is usually best to get in touch with your healthcare provider. You may be prescribed supplements to balance your hormones.</p>

<p><strong>2. Genetics </strong></p>

<p>Sometimes, genetics can also play a major role when it comes to the growth of your hair, regardless of whether you are pregnant or not. You are mostly suffering from hair fall due to your genetics, especially if you do not see any medication or treatment working on your hair.</p>

<p><strong>3. Poor Nutrition </strong></p>

<p>Your diet also plays a significant role when it comes to the growth as well as strength of your hair. It is a recommendation that you consume a healthy and balanced diet to ensure your hair receives all the necessary vitamins.</p>

<p><strong>4. Skin Diseases Of The Scalp </strong></p>

<p>Sometimes, problems such as dandruff or even lice on your scalp can have an impact on your hair. You may find yourself losing more hair than usual. In such situations, your doctor may recommend a shampoo that is quite effective when it comes to treating numerous scalp conditions.</p>

<p><strong>5. Vitamin And Mineral Deficiencies Like That Of Iron </strong></p>

<p>It may be best for you to consider consuming foods rich in iron. Iron is definitely an important mineral that every cell of your body requires. Yet again, you may want to be careful as well since too much iron can also have a negative impact.</p>

<p><strong>7. Health Disorders And Issues </strong></p>

<p>Conditions like hypothyroidism and Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) will need direct medical assistance without any delay. If left untreated, the symptoms may get worse with time. Apart from that, you will also have to keep a close watch on your diet.</p>

<p><strong>8. Side Effects Of Some Medicines </strong></p>

<p>If you feel like the hair fall treatment you are using is doing the exact opposite of what it is supposed to be doing, it may be high time for you to change the product or replace it with a better-quality, and a safe product.</p>

<p><strong>9. Reproductive Causes </strong></p>

<p>Reproductive issues like discontinuation of birth control methods, abortions, stillbirths, and miscarriages.<strong> </strong>Though hair fall during pregnancy is not abnormal, there are certain things that we can do to ensure that the hair fall does not become excessive, leading to permanent hair loss. Besides, it is usually best to treat hair fall problems right from the initial stage. Thus, this way, you can prevent cases of bald spots on thinning hair more effectively.</p>

<h2><strong>How Can Women Treat Hair Fall During Pregnancy? </strong></h2>

<p>First, it is important to understand that hair fall is quite normal, especially during the phase of pregnancy. Hair fall during pregnancy needs to be monitored to understand that there are no underlying reasons for this. Here are some treatments that help control hair fall during pregnancy and improve the quality of hair.</p>

<p><strong>1. Oiling </strong></p>

<p>Using lukewarm hair fall control oil to massage our scalp twice a week is a good idea. Use oils derived from argan, olive, sunflower, onion seed, castor, and amla. Argan, castor, and olive oil provide essential fatty acids to the hair, moisturizing them, correcting their pH balance, and restoring their shine.</p>

<p>On the other hand, onion hair oil prevents hair fall, amla oil treats dandruff and strengthens hair follicles to prevent hair fall, and sunflower oil improves scalp health and stimulates hair growth. We should massage the oil for 15-20 minutes on the scalp, leave for an hour and wash off with a mild shampoo.</p>

<p>It is usually best not to keep onion oil for hair growth on your head overnight. Leave the oil on your hair for not more than 45 minutes, and then rinse off with a good quality mild shampoo. Thus, this way, one can effectively maintain their hair.</p>

<p><strong>2. Eating Well </strong></p>

<p>Including fruits and vegetables in our diet ensures that we consume essential minerals, vitamins, and flavonoids necessary to overcome any deficiency that we may be experiencing. Sometimes, mineral deficiencies, especially that of iron, can lead to hair problems during the later stages of your life.</p>

<p><strong>3. Avoiding Extreme Styling </strong></p>

<p>Pregnancy is a time when we can let our hair down, literally. It is best to avoid heat styling and the use of harsh chemicals or styling techniques on our hair during this time. It would also be good to avoid wet combing or to rub our hair dry. We should pat dry our hair or let them dry out naturally.</p>

<p>If these small changes in the hair care routine do not help, then you may need to consult a doctor for this problem. It is possible that there might be some other problem for which hair fall is just a symptom.</p>

<p>Hair fall after delivery, or commonly referred to as postpartum hair loss can be very distressing for women. It is one of the most significant issues with new mothers, and they can usually take this kind of hair fall to their hearts because they already have a lot to deal with. However, to-be-moms and new moms, hear us closely because there are some effective ways to deal with postpartum hair fall and make it go away!</p>

<h2><strong>What is Postpartum Hair Loss?</strong></h2>

<p>Postpartum hair loss refers to the excessive hair shedding experienced by women 3-4 months after giving birth. It can be extremely distressing but you must remember that it is a part of pregnancy and only temporary. Most women notice that their hair grows back to its original volume (before pregnancy volume) within a year.</p>

<h2><strong>Why Does Postpartum Hair Loss Occur? </strong></h2>

<p>Postpartum hair loss or hair fall after delivery occurs mainly due to the sudden hormonal changes taking place inside your body. During pregnancy, the levels of estrogen, progesterone and prolactin spike along with the blood volume and circulation. This prevents your hair from falling and boosts hair growth.</p>

<p>But soon after the birth of your baby, most of these hormones return to their original level and the hair falling process resumes. You may feel like you are losing all the hair you may have lost over nine months all at once, but it will pass. There can be other causes of hair fall after delivery which we will discuss in detail further into the article.</p>

<h2><strong>How Long Does Postpartum Hair Loss Last? </strong></h2>

<p>We understand how distressing it can be to lose hair but remember, postpartum hair loss is only temporary. Postpartum hair loss can last up to a year after the arrival of your baby. Ideally, you should see a difference within six months. Hair fall after delivery usually peaks around 3-4 months. So, if your hair should regain their volume by the time your little one turns one.</p>

<h2><strong>What are the Signs of Postpartum Hair Loss? </strong></h2>

<p>The most prominent sign of postpartum hair loss is that you&rsquo;ll start noticing more than usual loose hair strands on your brush/comb, pillow, towel and shower floor. You may notice fallen hair stuck to your clothing after a brush.</p>

<h2><strong>What Causes Hairfall After Pregnancy?</strong></h2>

<p>As discussed, hair fall after delivery is caused by the sudden hormonal changes you experience during and after pregnancy. Here are some other causes of postpartum hairfall:</p>

<h3><strong>1. Drop in Estrogen Levels </strong></h3>

<p>One of the main reasons of hair fall after pregnancy is the fall in hormone estrogen levels. This makes your hair go into a resting mode, and they may fall for about four months after the baby has been delivered.</p>

<h3><strong>2. Stress </strong></h3>

<p>Another cause of hair fall post-pregnancy, is stress. Of course, with the baby coming and the unstable change in routine and lifestyle causes stress, which is a huge reason for hair fall post-pregnancy.</p>

<h3><strong>3. Change in Thyroid &amp; Iron Levels </strong></h3>

<p>Some women may experience changes in their thyroid and iron levels after pregnancy. If the hair fall does not go away in a span of a few months, you may be suffering from a change in thyroid levels and anaemia.</p>

<p>With that said, we are here with some good news too! There are many effective home remedies and tips that can help reduce hair fall after delivery.</p>

<h2><strong>Tips by Dermatologists for New Mothers </strong></h2>

<p>Here are a few tips by dermatologists on how to control hair fall after delivery:</p>

<h3><strong>2. Consume a Balanced Diet </strong></h3>

<h3><strong>3. Use an Anti-Hairfall Oil </strong></h3>

<p>Anti-hair fall oils help reduce hair fall by strengthening the roots of your hair and supplementing essential nutrients such as vitamin E, onion seed oil, amla, argan oil, castor oil, Bhringraj, and many other natural oils; thus, reducing hair fall and promoting hair growth. The Mylo Anti hair fall oil has been especially prepared using these effective ingredients and is extremely safe to use after childbirth.</p>

<h3><strong>4. Be Gentle with Your Hair </strong></h3>

<p>Try to be gentle with your hair when you wash them or oil them. Use gentle circular motions on your scalp and not a scrubbing motion as it can make your hair fall off a lot.</p>

<h3><strong>5. Avoid Styling </strong></h3>

<p>Try to avoid styling your hair using hair tools that involve extreme heat. Additionally, you should avoid any heat treatments in the salon as much as you can.</p>

<h2><strong>Be Careful of Hair Tourniquets </strong></h2>

<p>As a new mother, you should watch out for any hair tourniquets that may harm your little one. With you experiencing hair fall after delivery, the chances of hair tourniquets can rise. A hair tourniquet forms when a hair strand falls out and wraps around the baby&rsquo;s finger, toe or other body part. Sometimes, a single hair strand can wrap so tightly that it may prevent blood circulation or cause an infection.</p>

<h2><strong>How Does Hair Grow? </strong></h2>

<p>Hair grows from small pores in your scalp&rsquo;s skin called follicles. Hair follows a cycle of growing and shedding throughout our lifetime in three phases:</p>

<ul>
	<li>
	<p><strong>Anagen Phase:</strong> This phase is characterized by active hair growth. It lasts between 2-6 years and most of your hair are in this phase at any given time.</p>
	</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li>
	<p><strong>Catagen Phase</strong>: This is a short, transitional phase wherein the hair follicles shrink.</p>
	</li>
	<li>
	<p><strong>Telogen Phase:</strong> This phase is a resting phase, lasting for three months. The follicle releases the hair and they start falling out.</p>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>Postpartum hair loss is also called the telogen effluvium phase.</p>

<h2><strong>Final Thoughts </strong></h2>

<p>Postpartum hair loss is temporary and will pass. Be consistent with hair fall control remedies and you will notice a difference soon. If you don&rsquo;t see any improvement even after a year of experiencing hair fall after delivery, it&rsquo;s best to consult a dermatologist.</p>

गर्भ ठहरने में मदद कर सकते हैं ये घरेलू उपाय

<p>Pediatricians recommend exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life since your breast milk is tailor-made for your baby, contains all the nutrients &amp; is easy to digest! Moreover, breastfeeding helps strengthen the mother-child bond and protects babies from diseases and infections. But breastfeeding isn&rsquo;t always so easy, especially at first and new mothers often wonder how to increase breast milk.</p>

<p>If your baby is growing well, sleeping, eating and dirtying their diapers on schedule then you&rsquo;re probably producing enough breast milk. However, if you&rsquo;re in need of a breast milk supply boost then there are plenty of things you can do to increase breast milk.</p>

<h2><strong>How To Increase Your Milk Supply? </strong></h2>

<p>Here are a few tips you can follow to increase your breast milk supply:</p>

<h3><strong>2. Consume Plenty of Water </strong></h3>

<p>Your body cannot produce breast milk if you&rsquo;re dehydrated. As a breastfeeding mother, you should try to drink 12-16 glasses each day. Try to drink a glass of water before every meal and nursing session to meet your hydration goals.</p>

<h3><strong>3. Sleep as much as possible </strong></h3>

<p>Besides getting restorative sleep during the night, you should also try to nap during the day. You should try to sleep when your baby is sleeping. Getting proper sleep will help your body recover from childbirth and produce plenty of breast milk.</p>

<h3><strong>4. Find Ways to Reduce Stress </strong></h3>

<p>It&rsquo;s understandable if you&rsquo;re stressed about how to increase breast milk but stress will do you no good. Try practicing stress-reduction activities and techniques such as yoga, meditation, mindfulness and breathing exercises.</p>

<h3><strong>5. Often Breastfeed </strong></h3>

How to Increase Breast Milk? 	

<p>Around 1 in 4 newborns are said to have infant colic. Colic is a condition that causes excessive crying and discomfort in babies, making it a frustrating and stressful experience for both parents and baby. But it is often misunderstood, and many parents are unsure of colic meaning, its causes and treatment.</p>

<p>In this article, we will explore the meaning of colic, the possible causes, and various treatment options available. We hope to provide a better understanding of this condition, and help parents find relief for their little ones.</p>

<h2><strong>What is Colic?</strong></h2>

<p>Colic is excessive and intense crying in a healthy baby for no obvious reason. It can be extremely distressing for parents because their baby cries for hours at end and no amount of consoling seems to relieve them. Colic pain is most common during the first six weeks after birth and declines on its own by the time your baby turns 3 to 4 months-old.</p>

<p>Infant colic is identified when your baby&rsquo;s crying</p>

<ul>
	<li>Lasts longer than 3 hours a day</li>
	<li>Occurs more than 3 days a week</li>
	<li>And continues for more than 3 weeks.</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>Symptoms of Colic </strong></h2>

<p>Babies are known to fuss and cry, especially during the first few weeks after birth. But colicky pain or crying is different; it&rsquo;s louder, high-pitched and more urgent than regular crying. A baby with colic usually cries in the evening, from 6 pm to midnight and can be very tough to calm or soothe.</p>

<p>A colic baby may present the following symptoms:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Extreme fussiness</li>
	<li>Frequent burping and passing of gas</li>
	<li>Facial discolouring, such as having a red (flushed) face</li>
	<li>Body tension, such as clenched fists, back arching, stiffened arms &amp; legs, tight belly</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>Causes of Colic </strong></h2>

<p>While the exact cause of colic pain is unknown, it may arise because of some contributing factors:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Immature digestive tract</li>
	<li>Food allergies such as milk allergy or sensitivity to formula milk</li>
	<li>Overfeeding or underfeeding</li>
	<li>Choking of passage</li>
	<li>Lack of healthy bacteria in the digestive tract</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>Complications of Colic </strong></h2>

<p>Although infant colic does not cause any long-term medical problems for your baby, it can be very stressful for parents. According to research, the following complications may arise because of colicky pain:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Increased frustration and stress among parents with a colic baby</li>
	<li>Loss of sleep in both parents and baby</li>
	<li>Early cessation of breastfeeding</li>
	<li>Higher risk of postpartum depression in mothers</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>Risk Factors</strong></h2>

<p>The risk factors of infant colic have not yet been fully understood. But according to some studies, women who smoked during their pregnancy or after delivery have a higher chance of giving birth to a baby with colic. Research suggests that factors such as family history, allergy symptoms, duration of breastfeeding or <a href="https://mylofamily.com/article/when-are-babies-able-to-begin-consuming-cows-milk-13337">the age of introduction of cow milk</a> to the baby are not associated with the occurrence of colic in babies.</p>

<h2><strong>Treatment of Colic </strong></h2>

<p>No parent can bear to see their baby in colic pain. So here are some simple remedies to help soothe your baby:</p>

<h3><strong>1. Hing (asafoetida) Massage </strong></h3>

<p>Hing or asafoetida is a spice that is commonly used in traditional Indian cooking. Besides elevating taste, it also possesses antiseptic and antibacterial properties. Hing helps to treat stomach problems, indigestion, and <a href="https://mylofamily.com/article/irritable-bowel-syndrome-meaning-causes-types-treatment-198815?">irritable bowel syndrome</a>. It has been used since time immemorial to cure colic pain.</p>

<p><strong>How to use:</strong> You can mix a pinch of hing in lukewarm water and dip a cotton ball in it. Now, massage it on your baby&rsquo;s tummy in a clockwise direction. Avoid touching the baby&rsquo;s navel.</p>

<h3><strong>2. Fennel Oil </strong></h3>

<p>Fennel or saunf is another common kitchen ingredient found in most homes. It is known to <a href="https://mylofamily.com/article/6-most-effective-home-remedies-which-help-to-reli-12952?">relieve gas</a>, relax the intestines and eliminate discomfort in the digestive tract.

<p>One of the best ways to calm a colicky pain is to <a href="https://mylofamily.com/article/top-5-benefits-of-swaddling-a-newborn-baby-or-an-infant-166050?">swaddle your baby</a>. Even if your baby resists swaddling, he/she will feel extremely secure once inside the swaddle. You should continue swaddling your baby for the first few weeks after birth.</p>

<p><strong>How to use:</strong> Wrap your baby snugly in a <a href="https://mylofamily.com/category/baby-swaddle-wraps-6109">swaddle</a> and see the difference in some time.</p>

<h3><strong>4. Peppermint Oil </strong></h3>

<p>Peppermint or pudina lends a very refreshing taste to food and is known for its antispasmodic properties. Peppermint oil is considered to be another effective remedy for treating infant colic.</p>

<p><strong>How to use:</strong> Mix peppermint oil with a few drops of<a href="https://mylofamily.com/care/cold-pressed-extra-virgin-coconut-oil-for-skin-hair-200-ml-211?"> coconut oil</a> and massage on the baby&rsquo;s tummy to give a cooling effect.</p>

<h3><strong>5. Warm Bath </strong></h3>

<p>There&rsquo;s almost nothing a warm bath can&rsquo;t help cure. You can <a href="https://mylofamily.com/article/baby-bath-time---step-by-step-73457">bathe your baby</a> with warm water to soothe your baby&#39;s colic.

<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Pregnancy is a unique experience in which, at times, you might be overjoyed thinking about the baby, and on other occasions, you might feel extremely sick. The credit for pregnancy symptoms like gas, bloating, acidity, and morning sickness goes to ever-fluctuating hormones. During the first trimester, some of you might feel like a balloon that is ever inflated with annoying gas.  </span></big></p>

<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Pregnant women face a lot of discomfort due to bodily changes, and some of the most common discomforts are bloating and gas. The body undergoes drastic hormonal changes during the first trimester of pregnancy. The heightened levels of Estrogen and Progesterone (hormones) help thicken the uterine lining, which keeps the growing baby safe in the mother&rsquo;s womb. The muscles of the entire body relax, including your digestive tract, because of the increase in progesterone hormone level. This hormonal change brings a lot of changes in your digestive system, like slowing down your digestion, discomfort in the abdomen, bloating, and belching, causing gas and flatulence. </span></big></p>

<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">If you consume large and heavy meals during your pregnancy, problems like constipation and heartburn will also occur. Improper diet and lack of exercise are the two leading causes that heighten progesterone levels in your body during pregnancy. </span></big></p>

<h3><big><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Symptoms of gas during pregnancy </strong></span></big></h3>

<ul>
	<li>
	<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Belching </span></big></p>
	</li>
	<li>
	<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Jabbing pains in the tummy, which come and go </span></big></p>
	</li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Voluntarily or involuntarily passing of gas </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Swollen tummy </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Tightness in stomach </span></big></li>
</ul>

<h3><big><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Foods that can cause gas and bloating during pregnancy </strong></span></big></h3>

<ul>
	<li>
	<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Beans, whole grains, and vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower, asparagus, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. </span></big></p>
	</li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Some foods like pears, apples, lentils, cheese, ketchup, canned tomatoes, onions, honey, corn, potatoes, wheat, peas, prunes, oat bran, etc. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">If you are lactose intolerant, consuming dairy products during pregnancy will cause gas and a bloated abdomen. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Fried food, sugary foods, fast foods, processed foods, and carbonated drinks. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Sorbitol and fructose. </span></big></li>
</ul>

<h3><big><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Remedies for gas and bloating during pregnancy </strong></span></big></h3>

<p><big><span style="font-size:14px">Here are some quick, easy remedies to relieve bloating and gas during pregnancy. These methods will not harm your baby in the womb and also bloating, and gas will pose no threat to the unborn child. To get relief, you must regularly follow these remedies. </span></big></p>

<ul>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Drink plenty of fluids, including 8-10 glasses of water, fresh fruit juice, buttermilk, and flavoured milk. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Physical activity includes walking, yoga, and elevating your legs to let your system digest food quickly (2-3 times a day). </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Try to switch food items and test your diet by checking which food causes bloating and gas. Exclude them from your diet. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Consume a fibrous-rich diet because that increases the water content in your intestines and helps you eliminate constipation and gas. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Eat smaller meals frequently because most of the space is taken up by your growing baby, which slows down your digestive system. Avoid having large meals, and don&rsquo;t miss walking after every meal. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Avoid stress as it leads to a bloated belly. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Avoid wearing tight clothes and let your system digest the food easily. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Soak one tablespoon of fenugreek seeds in a glass of water overnight and the next day, strain the water and drink it for relief. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Do consult your doctor before consuming fibre supplements and stool softeners. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Try probiotics. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Practice breathing exercises to keep yourself calm and relaxed. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Sip on a miraculous warm drink that includes only lemon and warm water. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Avoid smoking and eating chewing gums. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">Take your prenatal vitamins only after consulting with your doctor. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">You can include peppermint and ginger in your diet after testing them, as they help comfort your digestive system. </span></big></li>
	<li><big><span style="font-size:14px">You can also try<a href="https://mylofamily.com/care/baby-natural-tummy-roll-on-with-hing-saunf-pudina-for-indigestion-colic-40-ml-284?"> Mylo tummy roll-on </a>which have ingredients like asafetida to get rid of gas and bloating during pregnancy. </span></big></li>
